Brake discs Brembo or DBA

I'm running the DBA Street Series T2 slotted rotors and EBC Yellow pads with steel braided lines on my STI Brembo's. Works great for me on track, touge and street. They do squeal during the break-in period fyi.

Dad used brembo on kadjar, expensive asf but worth it

I went with DBA T3 4000 rotors and DFC5000 advanced pads.

Bought new 2004 Sienna XLE Braun handicapped conversion with 240K miles still going strong but only 14 mpg. Another 2004 Sienna Limited bought used in 2013 w/130K miles now 210K miles. I’ve replaced the suspension on both, added 3rd generation Big Brake calipers, Pads (use Akebono or Advics) and rotors (Fremax, Brembo, or Raybestos in order of quality) to get better braking, see SiennaChat for details.

Get the Akebono ProAct pads, and good quality rotors. I bought Brembo rotors last time, and they worked well.

I know nobody asked about parts, but I’ve been happy with Brembo and Zimmerman coated rotors, and ATE ceramic pads. They aren’t grabby like the stock setup but don’t seem any less strong. Smoother and easier to modulate.

I just changed my front rotors and pads recently. I bought Brembo 26300VA000 rotors with Hawk HB616Z.607 pads. In total, I spent $450.89 USD for the fronts alone. It was simple and straightforward to change.

If you get brembos then one side will look backwards. It's just brembos cutting costs by only producing one version. Actual impact on performance? Likely nil . Not enough to matter if you're buying cheaper aftermarket discs anyway.

I have a 2008 Kia ProCeed and last year in April I changed front brake discs and pads. They were the most expensive parts I could get and are from Brembo which I know as being a good manufacturer of brakes. Anyway, after 6 months I started experiencing vibrations under braking which only grew stronger over time. I had the brakes checked at my local mechanic and he noticed both front discs were warped.

Recently needed front discs on my Astra VXR and just the parts were £2500. Apparently Brembo only made that part for that car so they’re rare. Managed to find them privately with front and rear pads for £820 plus a couple hundred to my local garage to fit them and some other bits.
